21. A Study of an Integrated Safety System for the Protection of Adult Pedestrians from Car Collisions
Sammanfattning : This study aimed to evaluate and improve the performance of a newly developed safety system intended to protect pedestrians during frontal car collisions. This system includes a remote sensor system, a contact sensor, a reversible bumper system (RBS), and a reversible hood (RH). LÄS MER
22. Experimental characterization and numerical modeling of compression perpendicular to the grain in wood and cross-laminated timber
Sammanfattning : Compression perpendicular to the grain (CPG) of wood is a typical loading situation in timber structures. It has been an extensively studied research topic for decades, due to the highly ductile behavior of wood under such loading, the large variations in mechanical properties, and the relevance of these properties in structural design.

23. Finite elements based on the piece-wise linear weight functions in contact problems
Sammanfattning : The Finite Element Method (FEM) has been applied widely in solving many engineering problems. The FEM is an approximate method, which makes use of a spatial discretization and a weighted residual formulation to arrive at a system of matrix equations. LÄS MER
24. Wheel–Rail Impact Loads and Track Settlement in Railway Crossings
Sammanfattning : Turnouts (Switches & Crossings, S&C) are critical components of a railway track requiring regular maintenance and generating high life cycle costs. A main driver for the high maintenance costs is the need to repair and replace switch rails and crossings as these components are subjected to a severe load environment. LÄS MER
25. The Impact of Fracture Geometry on the Hydromechanical Behaviour of Crystalline Rock
Sammanfattning : Effective construction of tunnels in fractured crystalline rock requires a unified approach for handling rock mechanics and hydrogeological issues. Traditionally, rock mechanics and hydrogeology not only use different nomenclature, they also measure parameters such as e.g. aperture differently. LÄS MER
